The Best Burgers In Colombus, Ohio
Columbus is certifiably a burger town. Titan food chains like Wendy’s and White Castle put down their original stores in this Midwestern metropolis, but burgers are also appearing on upscale menus around the city. Gourmet chefs are reinventing the burger with some unusual toppings and grass-fed beef, bison, or even yak. Whether you’re looking for a classic burger stacked high with all the fixings or an alternative choice, Columbus has a burger for all – read on to find out where to eat them.

Worthington Inn
On the outskirts of Columbus is a quaint Victorian inn that was built in 1831 and also happens to serve one of the best burgers in the city. The ‘Lights Out’ burger is, forgive the pun, a knockout – made with grass-fed beef, applewood smoked bacon, sharp cheddar, tobacco onions, arugula, tomato, and a barbecue secret sauce on a toasted kaiser bun. All burgers are served with hand-cut fries or Carolina-style coleslaw, and can be enjoyed inside or on the outdoor patio. The food alone makes the trip out of town well-worth it.
